About the 1983–1988 Mercury Cougar
The sixth-generation Mercury Cougar (1983-1988) is the aero-bodied Fox platform coupe built alongside the ninth-generation Ford Thunderbird, primarily at Lorain, Ohio. It shares the Thunderbird's 104 inch wheelbase chassis (104.2 inches after a 1987 suspension revision) and rounded sheetmetal but keeps a formal, more upright rear window that makes the two easy to tell apart from behind. Base cars ran the 3.8L Essex V6 with the 5.0L V8 optional, while the XR-7 carried the 2.3L turbocharged four from 1984-1986 before switching to the 5.0L V8 for 1987-1988. A 1987 facelift brought flush composite headlamps and changed nearly every exterior panel.
